I don't get it, these guys just use hardware just so they can pump up #s for benchmarks?

it's a hobby, and i am sure that the amount of money is only worth a dollar for them.
 
Damnit did you guys see those temps??

CPU @ -101C, GPU1 @ -52C, GPU2 @ -95C

That's really close to cryogenic temps WTF!
 
Wouldn't be hard if I had money like that and didn't live in Florida.
Nonetheless, here is my obligatory eye bulging shocked face:

:shocked:

That rig has got to be unbelievably fast. Congrats to the builder!

I think you wanted to say MONEY and SPACE 😀

but anyway , 2x 6800U @ 600/1300 is insane !!

thank god he didnt just post SuperPI results 😀
 
Even so, did you see his set up? He had the mobo out in the open so that he could put that monstrous cooler to work, sad to say, he wont be using that PC to do anything but pump up higher #s for 3dmark. I'm sure someone who wastes so much money so they brag their internet penis have more than one PC, otherwise, I find it rather pointless really. I mean, where does having the fastest commercial PC bring you? Might as well save up all thier dough and buy a super computer from the government, then they can brag about 3 terraflops of operations per second.
 
Well it looks like he was using liquid nitrogen or phase change cooling which would explain why it is such a mess. Definately nice.... now lets stop "playing" 3dMark 03 and run some DIII HL2 and Far Cry benches.

We know it's beneath you Ackmed and we can sense your disappointment.
See, comments like yours are unneeded. Shows you lack either the money, or the
creativity & imagination to try something like this on your own. I just lack the money 😉

Give Kudos where it's due, this probably took a lot of effort to set up correctly.

:roll:
 
What a freaking mess....if i passed that pile sittin on a street corner....I'd walk right by thinking it was junk.
 
wonder why he didn't test his cpu, I mean if i had a cpu at -101 and a 3 ghz 64 I would run the default test.

But as said before that is insane, cool, but insane.
 
looks cool (pun intended..heh)...only thing im curious about is why on the 3dmark 03 did he have a score, yet only the game tests were done, even the demo version does the cpu, shaders, sound tests etc? or has he actually bought the proper thing??....i prefer to use the freebie, not cuz its free but cuz its what most people use to compare scores...lol
